Downloaded this back when it came out, forgot it was a horror game, and was spooked haha. Fun little game. Plus non-mainline styled Pokemon games for the Gameboy is cool.
Definitely in my top 3 favorite Pokemon fangames. There's a couple minor issues, but they're very easy to gloss over due to how immersive and creepy the game is. Well done!!
Wow, thank you so much for the kind words! It means a lot to me that you thought it deserved such a high spot in your list. :)
You're very welcome, keep up the good work! :)
Very nicely done, cute lil' 'Pasta.
Love the art style and the concept you've enveloped. I'd love to see more on it if anything happens someday!
Thanks so much! I'd love to expand it into a collection of short stories set in the universe, so I might do that. I appreciate the kind comment. :)
Oooh, that'll be interesting!
You're very welcome! ^_^
made an video:
is the game supposed to end in the eye in the dark scene?, nice game btwthanks so much for taking the time to make a video and play my game! There’s only one ending and you got it. I thought it was creepy to just leave the eye and the music going, so that’s why I did it.
The atmosphere was really tense towards the end. Excellent work!
Thank you so much! 💖

Thanks so much for taking time to play our game. Your commentary was a hoot. 😂
Happy you enjoyed the video. We had a really good time playing the game and exploring the cave to find the unknown.
Love this spooky take on Pokemon lore!! Amazing art and music that builds the tension throughout. Also I like how the cursor moves when something is interactable – nice touch!
Thank you so much for the kind feedback. :) I really appreciate it.
